Abstract

The main objective of the Scientific Initiation project is to develop software in ROS (Robot Operating System) capable of using the information provided by a LiDAR 2D sensor (Hokuyo UST-10LX) and, by processing this information with computational vision, perform autonomous control of a robot inside a crop.(AU)
